Susan Byrnes explains why she chose Dayton

“I chose to move to Dayton a few years ago- above New York City- because I found a different environment here- a place where I could know all of these people around the table, a place where I could meet the Governor. This would not be happening to me in New York City.”

Byrnes continued: “The size of the community, the nature of the arts in the community, and the fact that we have all of these innovative people here who want to talk to each other, who want to be in an intellectually stimulating community that crosses the boundaries between technology, science, and the arts. That is really the power of DaytonCREATE.”

About

DaytonCREATE is a community empowerment organization helping to connect people and ideas throughout the Dayton-Yellow Springs-Springfield region.

We are working to build vitality back into our communities, back into our regional economy, and back into our individual lives.

To do this, we need to recognize our regional assets and build upon the good. We need to speak out about the issues that matter to us. We need to have a dialogue with others whose ideas are different than our own. And we need to get out and participate.

For more information on our beginnings and how to get involved with area projects, read the about page. We are all volunteers around here, and we need you!
